[ Upstream commit cbeb989e41f4094f54bec2cecce993f26f547bea ]
The default dump handler needs to clear ret before returning.
Otherwise if the last interface returns an inconsequential
error this error will propagate to user space.
This may confuse user space (ethtool CLI seems to ignore it,
but YNL doesn't). It will also terminate the dump early
for mutli-skb dump, because netlink core treats EOPNOTSUPP
as a real error.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
